LOCAL RESEARCH / San José
Local context
If you plan to use a wood-burning fireplace, insert or stove, check the Bay Area Air District’s current Spare the Air information before burning. Its guidance distinguishes fine-particle alerts, ozone alerts and air-quality advisories, and links wood-burning restrictions to fine-particle alerts. Check the alert type and effective dates on the official service rather than assuming that a recent inspection or cleaning settles whether burning is allowed. Ask the Air District about circumstances affecting your property; this page does not report today’s alert status or determine an exemption.

Before the visit
If smoke is entering the room, stop using the fireplace and arrange an assessment.
